Organic Citrus Ginger Green Tea

Fruit Green Herbal Blend by Arbor Teas

This organic, Fair Trade Certified tea combines the refreshing tartness of citrus fruits and the zing of ginger in an uplifting blend that is nicely complimented by the green tea base. This blend was re-vamped in Fall of 2008 to utilize an even higher quality sencha-style green tea and strike an even better balance of flavors. The bright yellow green infusion has a medium body and astringency. Like all of our tea blends, our Citrus Ginger Green uses only the highest quality teas, essential oils and botanical ingredients, insuring an excellent cup every time!

Sustainability is a cornerstone of Arbor Teas’ business philosophy. In addition to offering an exclusively organic selection of teas, they recently became the first tea company to offer their whole catalog in 100% backyard compostable packaging. They’ve also carbon-offset the entire supply chain of their products, from origin to the customer, making Arbor Teas the greenest option for Earth-conscious tea drinkers, and one of few tea companies recognized by Green America.

Dry leaf smells bright and… zingy. The brewed tea is a bit lighter. The green tea base is only occasionally noticeable, but is a nice, light, grassy taste when it is.

The ginger sort of rolls in afterwards, leaving just a bit of a tingle in the back of my throat, but isn’t overpowering. (Though, my love for ginger is pretty strong, and I wouldn’t be offended if this tea packed a wallop.)

I haven’t yet located the citrus flavor, though there are plenty of bit of dried fruit in my cup.

Definitely good, but I would love to see it a bit stronger.
